If you have a body, you’re an athlete

“If you have a body, you’re an athlete” – Bill Bowerman.
We believe YOU make the choice to be an athlete. You make the choice to show up. To show up and run, jump, lift and move. You make the choice to improve your overall health and the quality of your life.

“What I hope to … is give people an opportunity to kind of experience an adventure that they might do as a tourist but with an element of CrossFit and kind of physical interaction with (their) surroundings,” Blair Morrison.

Part 1 begins with the athletes’ arrival in Iceland and a WOD at Parliament Wall in Reykjavic with burpees and wall muscle-ups. Then the group is off to explore the Icelandic wilderness and get in some workouts utilizing features of the landscape.

In Part 2, the journey continues with pistol skill work beside a picturesque waterfall. Lifting rocks and each other, the athletes build their strength. Along the way, they stop at a local CrossFit affiliate to get in some barbell and gymnastics work. Then they take on a local challenge: running a church’s stairs for time. Finally, they challenge themselves to some white-water rafting.

In Part 3, the athletes use the rocky terrain to work on their L-sits, and then they work on their strength with barbells—barefoot in the sand. Taking advantage of their proximity to the water, they don wetsuits and go swimming in frigid water after a team chipper. For some, the biggest challenge is still ahead: participating in a local marathon and half-marathon while others run an innovative 10K.

Heb jij een CrossFit familie?

Op het onderstaande filmpje is te zien wat een CrossFit familie is. Bij CrossFit Relentless in West Hartford sporten 12 mensen uit één familie! DAT is pas een CrossFit familie. Brenda Glidden bracht CrossFit naar haar familie en dit had tot nu toe en nog steeds voor ieder veel voordelen.

Zelfs onze kat kan het niet laten. Ze kan sinds gisteren pull-ups en was meteen om. Ook deze ochtend begon ze vrolijk met nog meer pull-ups!

Workout on the Empire State Building

Workouts kun je niet alleen in een CrossFit box doen. De fitste mensen van de wereld kwamen samen op The Empire State Building voor een gezamenlijke workout.

Reebok: “We want to show people that fitness is something that can be done anywhere, at any time. This is why we took the Fittest Man and Woman on Earth, Rich Froning and Annie Thorisdottir, along with 10 elite CrossFit athletes, 1,050 feet above the streets of New York City for a once in a lifetime WOD.

In the Empire State Building WOD, the athletes had to complete as many reps as possible of a series of movements: thrusters, kettlebell swings, handstand pushups, double unders and walking lunges.”
